Application for the Probate
of a Will |
The Civil Code of Québec, which came into force
on January 1, 1994, maintained the three types of wills recognized in the
previous version of the Code, while easing certain rules.
|
In addition to wills made before a
notary—called authentic wills — the Civil Code recognizes the
validity of two other types of wills, namely, holograph wills and wills made in
the presence of witnesses.
However, to ensure that a holograph will or
a will made in the presence of witnesses was really drawn up by the deceased
and that the requirements of the law have been met, both these types of wills
must be validated by the court or a notary.
These wills must therefore
be probated. This brochure explains how to prepare an application for the
probate of a will. |
